Rob... Don't belabor the obvious.[8D]

I prefer traditional because it's more flexible shooting style. Although, shooting a compound barebow makes the wheelie bow a good bit more comparable to traditional in that regard. I can cant a compound just as much as a longbow or recurve when I don't have any sights to worry about. It's still not as conducive to getting off a quick instinctive shot as a stickbow though.
